Skeleton Man

Skeleton man tips his hat to you.

Vote for my bat on Patch Together!

If he gets enough votes (& comments/etc) he'll hopefully be made into a toy which then you, or others, could potentially purchase. You need to create an account to vote, but it's quick & easy and they don't spam you, I swear. Should he actually be made into a plush toy I would of course purchase a bazillion of them myself because omg adorable round bat of friendliness!!

So please vote & please ask all your friends to vote and then post it on your blog or tweet about it or whatever the kids are doing these days.

(Then submit your own stuff on Patch Together so I can vote for your awesome art to become a toy!)

More bats

A club flyer with my deliriously joyful round bats.

Cat.

My scanner still won't talk to my computer & everything I've tried to take a picture of this week has come out blurry. So here's a mildly blurry cat.

More figure studies

In the name of science.

The napkin says - "Hi Paul! Here is a picture for you. Don't make cat sized jet packs because one day this could be you. (The guy, not the cat)."

Brushes - Batgirl

I drew Batgirl on my iPhone.


It actually took a little while, but that's because I was trying out both Brushes new layers stuff and SketchBook. I really like SketchBook's wide variety of features but the UI has a bit of a learning curve, so I kept going back to Brushes.

Quick Photoshop sketch

Kid wearing a puffy coat with a hood.

Girl with braid

Cupcake bat

It's a cupcake, it's a bat. It's both! Blurry pic, figure I'll do a cuter/color version in the vaguely near future because black and white sprinkles don't work.

Small watercolor

Been very busy w/my sister's wedding. Quick watercolor w/pen on her RSVP card.

Tree

Watercolor & pen sketch - blurry & faded edges courtesy of bad lighting + my iPhone camera.

Self portrait w/new hair

I redid a part of the self portrait I made a while ago to reflect my updated hair color.

Figure studies

There's an app on the iPhone called RandomPose that's great for (wait for it) random poses.

Magazine sketch #12

Magazine watercolor

Self portrait w/pen & watercolor in November's Allure

Magazine sketch #11 w/stickers

My Allure came with a bunch of stickers to mark your place.

Magazine sketch #10: Happy girl w/a coat #2

IF: Pattern - Magazine sketch #8

Pen (click for bigger pic)

Pen w/watercolor (click for bigger pic)

Illustration Friday's theme is "pattern". I like using magazines as sketchpads because of the texture & pattern of the blocks of text.

Magazine sketch #7: Lady w/gloves

Another magazine sketch, click for bigger pic.

Dr. Sketchy's: Manko & Berlin Cabaret Duo: The Horasitas

Kinda NSFW, click for a bigger pic.



I filled an entire sketchpad w/Dr. Sketchy's stuff, I have to go buy a new one.

Omgbf

Tiny little cartoon of omgbf & I.

Dr. Sketchy's: Amber Ray in "The Rites of Spring"

1 or 2 min poses -




Opposite hand challenge -


10+ min poses -

Disney Divas

I recreated the Marvel Divas cover with Disney Princesses.



(The original Marvel Diva cover for those who never saw it -
)

Charcoal pencil #3

Drawing #3, in which I realize I'm left handed and have to wash my hands between drawings or else they look like this.

Charcoal pencil #2

Charcoal pencil

I was trying out charcoal pencil sketches. This is a girl with a bird in her hair.

Magazine sketch #5: Long faced lady

Today I've been doing my drawing-a-week thing for exactly a year. I was fairly successful for the most part. I missed a week here or there but made multiple posts during other weeks, so I have 65 total for the year. Yay for drawing!

The last of my drawings from the magazine sketches I did a week or so ago.

Dr. Sketchy's: Raquel Reed in a tribute to "celebrity"

My 1/2 minute drawings are getting better.











The first challenge is always an opposite hand drawing. Usually I forget to label those and wonder why I have a randomly horribly drawing in my book. This time I remembered.




She was wearing really large sunglasses for most of the longer poses. They did not turn out well in sketchpad land.
